Now York, April 2. Tho World
and Amorlcnn this morning contain
copies of n lottor, in whiah Unrrl
man discusses giving cnmpalgu as-
slstanco to lloosovolt In tho campaign
for his InBt ro-oloctlon In a way that
would load tho public to Infer that
lloosovolt solicited his support for
ro-oloctlon, and recolved assurances
of tho same. Tho latter is not do-
nicd by Harriman, and tho Prosldont
nt "Washington has promptly given
him tho Ho. It 1ms crontod a pro
found sensation in Washington und
in iniH city, it means u ngut to a
finish betwoan tho President and tho
king of tho railroad situation.
What llarilmun Wrote.
Ilarlrnian wrote the letter to Sid
ney Webster. Webster is a Xew
York mllllonalro. The portion re
lating to the alleged contribution la
as follews: "About a week before
the election of 190-1, when it looked
certain that the state ticket would
go Democratic, and It was doubtful
as to Koosovelt himeelf, the Presi
dent sent me a reauoet to go to Wash
ington and confer upon political con
ditions in Xew York. I compiled.
Ho told mo ho understood the cam
paign could not be sucoeesfully car
ried on without sufficient funda, us
tho national committee had utterly
failed of obtaining thorn. I ex
plained to him that I understood the
difficulty here was mainly caused by
tho up-state leadurs being unwilling
to support Depew for ro-oloctlon
but that if ho (Dopew) could be
taken oare or In some other way, I
showed him Hint matters could be
adjusted aud tho different contend
ing element in tho party brought in
to' close alliance again. Wo talked
over what should be done for Do
pow, and flually he agreed that If he
found it necessary ho would appoint
aim ambassador to Purls. With the
full belief thnt tho President would
keep his agreement I came back to
Xew York nnd sont for Treasurer
Dllse. who told me I wns the lost
hope. They had oxhuusted every re
source. In his prosenee I called up
an Intimate friend of Dopew, and told
him thnt It was necessary, in order
to carry Xew York, that 1200.000
should be raised at onoe. and If he
would help I would subsorlbe $60,
000. Tho gentleman said ho would
let me know, whloh he did, with
the result that tho whole amount, in
cluding my subscription, was raised.
Checks were given to Illlu who took
them to Corlelyou."
Give Harriman the Lie.
The President this afternoon gave
the lie to tho assertions in tho al
leged Harrlman-Webster letter, mak
ing public copies of letter the Pres
ident wroto to Cengressman: Sher
man, of Xew York, last summer In
om of these letters the President
Mid: "I understand you to say that
Sirrlmaa alleged that I made this
proinlso, referring to Depew as am
bacaaior to France, at tbi time when
fco atM U m sae la. Washington,
-wkea Z W4tte4 tilm to raise a yttt
tor of a million fund for tho presi
dential cnmpalgu then on. Any such
statement Is a dellbcrato and wilful
untruth. By rights it should bo
characterised by a shorter and moro
ugly word. 1 never requested Har
riman to ralso a dollar for tho presi
dential compnlgn in 1904.'
Puts HniTlmnn With llurtou.
After giving out tho correspond
ence tho President said: "I fool par
ticularly tortunnto lu having boon
attacked within the last few days by
both Burton and Hnrrlmau." Tho
Prosldont thou authorized tho fol
lowing statement: "Aftor writing
tho letters to Sherman tho Prosldont
was assured that Harriman had nut
mndo tho stntumunt Sherman orodlt
od him with making. Inasmuch ns
thoso samo statements appear In a
lottor of Hnrlrman's now published,
tho Prosldont deems It proper the
lot tors ho sent to Shormnn last Oc
tober shall now themsolvw bo mndo
public."
President lU'JcCllHl 1)01H)W.
Washington, April 2. Tho Pres
ident's letters to Sherman cunuorntug
Hurrlman aro sizzling with rufutn
tntlons. Hu told Shormnn to show
thorn to Harriman. He said he not
only nevor promised to uppolut Do
pow to tho Fronoli ombnssy, but said
he believed It would bo' ImpoHsllilu.
Ho wns surprised that tho llnuucler
wanted him, us several had written
favoring Hydo. Ho said his conver
sations with Hnrlrmnu related out I re
ly to Hlggln's camiwlgn fund, Hnrrl
mau being greatly interested person
ally, because he thought the effort to
defeat Hlggtns a direct attack upon
him. The correspondence the Pres
ident had with Harriman it also
mad public. October IS, 1101,
Harriman wrote that he would try to
mu down the "nrtt of next week,"
as he thought" conditions would bo
Improved.
Letter We io Warm.
Tho President's correspondence
with Hnrrlmau shows the President
was nut seeking Harrtinnn's aid, but
that HarrhiiKn sought an advance
copy of the President's message. The
President refused It, saying even the
members of his cabinet had not been
permitted to see any part of It, und
that threo prose association had It
under heavy penalty; that Iloosevolt
was wllPng to confer With Hurrl
man to nld Hlgglns, hut would llku
to confer with Harriman later In re
gard to the government's connec
tion with . railroads. The letters
showed that Hnrrlinan thought tho
message should contain nothing Indi
cating what should be the attitude of
the railroads toward the Interstate
commerce commission.
ItooMjvrlt .Met Them All,
These letters between the Presi
dent aud Harriman were enclosure
with correspondence to Sherman. In
one letter HarrlmaH strongly urged
the appointment of Hyde; said Hyde
would certainly have tho backing of
Depew and Piatt. President Bays to
Shrman: "Tho wholo shows how
Incompatible my actions at times
were with any theory now advanced
that I solicited or sought or expected
auy campaign contributions from
Harriman. I conferred with Harri
man, Morgan, Hill and other railroad
menthe same as I did with members
or with Keefe, Morrissey and othor
labor leaders.

Tho President continues to Sher
man: "8o much for what Harriman
said abotit mo personally. Far moro

The association has requested thnt
